Comment succeed on dektop means to fail on good os? (Score 1) 861
If Linux will succeed on desktop, that means IMHO that the os will dramatically change in something "microsoftier". I mean, we will end up in something, without terminals, with automatic software installation and a "My Computer" icon. Because for the standard windowsuser this is the essence of an os. Then parts of Linux will become propretiary, unstable, overloaded and slow, like KDE.
I dont want Linux to "succeed on the desktop" - but i am a blackbox-purist, so my two cents probably arent important?
